BFK holds public meetings as needed; “all-hands” meetings are not currently scheduled on a fixed basis. Committees may meet more regularly according to their own schedules and release meeting notes or minutes as they see best. We strive to email minutes to BFK participants one-two weeks after a public meeting during which minutes have been recorded. Some BFK meetings are not formal; minutes are not always kept. This page is updated as time permits to facilitate open access to minutes previously sent to participants; minutes are most recent version available. Dates are coded in YYMMDD format.
There may be inadvertent omissions in this list. Please let us know if you have minutes for any BFK meetings not listed below!
Note that until our participants named our network “Bike Friendly Kalamazoo” (“BFK” for short), minutes reflected a more generic working name (specifically, Bike Friendly Community or BFC).
